If you don't stand for something you will fall for anything ?

Anyone who
>has strong opinions
>believes others should hear about them
>takes himself seriously
is easy to bait

Newly deconverted atheists often feel angry about being deceived and like they know some truth they need to share with others who are still decieved.
Eventually they stop being obnoxious cunts about it.

If you are asking why people fall for bait, I can't answer. One reason is boredom though. Even a false conversation of no value is more interesting than nothing.

t. Am atheist who occasionally discusses stuff in threads like this but tries not to be a shit about it.

Why would you want to bait people? Don't you think that's counter-productive in spreading your faith?

Serious question. I'm curious.

The main conceit is that the world makes sense on our terms, that it conforms to our peculiarities, which is called rationalism. If you take this to be the thing that's wrong about religion, then it's nearly ubiquitous, and it stops being surprising that most scientists are religious.

I don't really relate because my family is Christian but it never played a role in my life, nobody forced it onto me or did anything to me or anything.
That's why I always wonder why there is so much resentment and anger in some of those posts. They really want to get back at their families for something.
